Re: 24 Hours of ECR--is it too soon to talk about it?

To the question "can we put a light-saver bar on that bumper," I can just hear Jay's reaction in my head: "hey, here's an idea. How about just not hitting anybody?"

That said, I'd email the two photos to Pagel or Nick and see what you get back from them.

Re: 24 Hours of ECR--is it too soon to talk about it?

It looks like timing and scoring differs from track to track.  Is Race Monitor the way to get live timing and scoring info at ECR?  If not, is there something I need to have on my Android phone or Windows netbook to get this info realtime in the pits?

Re: 24 Hours of ECR--is it too soon to talk about it?

The head is on the Cordia.  We plan to start it tomorrow.  Brakes redone.    We removed all of the pollution stuff - mostly because it broke off when we were working on the head.  I hear the boys will be cutting and welding on the suspension.

On a positive note:

We got two new tires.  They're 14 inch and will be for sale at about 4:30 Saturday afternoon.

It will, in all likelihood, be in effect at this race too.

New car and new team for ECR.  Here's a hint of what we will be wrenching on and possibly driving if we get lucky.

Yes, the rear main stays are kinda narrow.  We sent pics to "race control" for review and got the OK to bring it out as it is.

I just got a call from the NSFIRHQ SC.  They just broke an Injector.  We need a 850 from a Starion or Cordia.  This is a 1987 2.0 Cordia turbo.  Search your junk piles!!
